Abstract
An improved method of detecting abnormal cell mass in animals, particularly tumors, wherein a fluorocarbon emulsion and a lysophosphatide or proteinaceous material are administered to animals causing the fluorocarbon to be taken up by the cell mass in hithertofor unobtainable amounts, thus rendering it readily detectable by a variety of physical or chemical methods.
